Mini Gaming PC

What will you be doing with this PC? Be as specific as possible, and include specific games or programs you will be using.

I would like to play games like World of Warcraft, Overwatch, steam games, and new releases.

What is your maximum budget before rebates/shipping/taxes?

I would like to keep this build under 1,000 dollars US.

When do you plan on building/buying the PC? Note: beyond a week or two from today means any build you receive will be out of date when you want to buy. I plan on ordering the parts from Amazon as soon as possible.

What, exactly, do you need included in the budget? (Tower/OS/monitor/keyboard/mouse/etc)

I already have all the extras, just need a tower.

Which country (and state/province) will you be purchasing the parts in? If you're in US, do you have access to a Microcenter location?

Right now I am located in Southern California, there are Fry's locations near me. I might be able to make a trip to Microcenter if it will save me some money.

If reusing any parts (including monitor(s)/keyboard/mouse/etc), what parts will you be reusing? Brands and models are appreciated.

Reusing monitors, keyboard, and mouse.

Will you be overclocking? If yes, are you interested in overclocking right away, or down the line? CPU and/or GPU?

Should I?

Are there any specific features or items you want/need in the build? (ex: SSD, large amount of storage or a RAID setup, CUDA or OpenCL support, etc)

I want to be able to run a dual monitor setup with no problems. Also a SSD if it is possible to keep it under budget.

Do you have any specific case preferences (Size like ITX/microATX/mid-tower/full-tower, styles, colors, window or not, LED lighting, etc), or a particular color theme preference for the components?

I want to make a mini build. I want to be able to toss this in my Carryon when I fly and be able to transport it with ease.

Do you need a copy of Windows included in the budget? If you do need one included, do you have a preference?

No

Extra info or particulars:

I want to be able to play on high settings with good FPS. Hopefully room for upgrades and growth down the line.
